"Williams' operation went extremely well and we expect him to make a full recovery," said Marc Gillinov, a cardiothoracic surgeon at the Cleveland Clinic where the Oscar winning actor was being treated.
After the three-hour-plus procedure Gillinov said Williams was expected to make a full recovery in the next eight weeks.
"His heart is strong and he will have normal heart function in the coming weeks with no limitations on what he'll be able to do," Gillinov said.
Williams had postponed his stand-up comedy tour "Weapons of Self-Destruction" to go into surgery, but his publicist Mara Buxbaum said the tour would begin anew this autumn.
According to a statement, after the operation Williams joked he had "some great new material for the tour," adding that he could not wait to get back on the road.
"I'm thinking the next leg of the tour will be 'Weapons of Self-Destruction and Reconstruction'," he is said to have quipped.
